Official source this is based on is https://www.ncsc.nl/en/alerts/update-php-vulnerabilities-remain-a-reason-for-immediate-patching, which mentions they’re investigating signs of exploits and that they have at least one confirmed exploit that happened abroad.
It’s still a complex exploit, mind, but not an unusable one.
You say that as if “below average” looking people can’t be physically attractive to someone, and as if people universally agree on an attractiveness ranking rather than having personal tastes.
It’s usually not the looks being average why those guys have trouble.


I mean, the national cybersecurity council here saw exploits happening in the wild. So it’s definitely possible and practical enough for it to happen.


At the architectural level, there’s definitely a difference yes. But at the smaller scoped implementation level the latest models are pretty good compared to humans. Not perfect by any means, sure, but it’s not all drivel anymore. It was 2 years ago, but today’s definitely different.
Race conditions are generally harder to catch, even for human devs. And you’re saying it as if Linus wouldn’t have introduced it had he coded everything by hand, which I don’t think is remotely guaranteed (like he never makes mistakes). And the review system clearly works just fine still.
Good developers can accelerate their work with agents, and you’re right that you can generate tons of LLM-powered slop with it too. But that’s why dismissing anything an agent wrote immediately is also wrong. The review determines if it’s good enough, whether a human or an agent wrote it.


Sure, that’s why I said “not necessarily”. LLMs can be misused and made to do dumb shit too. But I have seen plenty of bullshit come from human developers too.


Verifying LLM code isn’t necessarily harder than verifying a human PR. I hope that this also boosts automated test tooling so that it also gets easier to test these PRs, since the focus will shift to review rather than writing.


They’re required to make a copy to safeguard the data and prevent it from being wiped, but that doesn’t actually mean the request will be honoured and data will be shared. Thus far, police have said no data has actually been transferred pending the review of the request.


They haven’t actually shared anything yet, afaik. When the request comes in the authorities have basically no wiggle room regarding safeguarding the data, but it is only shared once the request is approved as legal.


Microsoft successfully did that somewhere near Scotland iirc.


In France, sure. In Hungary the water level actually dropped below the intake valves so they physically couldn’t pump enough water into the reactor.


The fabs in use for the latest chips are typically 1 to 2 generations behind, because it’s expensive and takes a long time to get a new fab in place (these are extremely sensitive machines). Even if China could produce the exact fabs most in use today (which is already a little unlikely), ASML themselves are 2 gens ahead.
This will likely reduce prices on older gen chips though, and those were no slumps either.


Because PlayStation controllers aren’t a service and are easily replaced. Bit harder to do with LLMs.


Because they already have an internet plan, and internet coverage is ubiquitous around them. So SMS is just a slower, more expensive option with fewer features.
I don’t think I’ve sent an SMS to someone in 10 years now, that’s how “ancient” it is to most people around here. It’s like sending a fax, reputation wise.


Technically using it means burning stupid Wall Street investors’ money, since none of these AIs are profitable. Using it more would accelerate any potential bankruptcy.


SMS is pretty antiquated tech in a way and just made basically obsolete with internet-based messengers.


Consumer trust, most likely. You do this to 100 people and you lose far more in customers who don’t want to touch your stuff anymore.
Perhaps you missed it, but the second affair that was uncovered was that he was fucking the head of Nvidia’s health divison. Who is most certainly his subordinate.
